I just hate it but can't resist - I'll be on my way somewhere else and will drive by a fabric store and my car just automatically pulls in. Of course I have to go in just to see what they have, and invariably that makes me late to what I intended to do.

my DH does most of the driving, so unless i beg, and forget stopping at yard sales, he pretends he doesn't see them or he says to me "Don't Look" as we drive by!

If we are driving on a trip, I make sure we stop! If it is a local shop I don't always, because I know I'll spend tons and sit and chat for hours. My husband is really good about it he will find the shops for me.

If it is opened I will stop!

Yes, I'll stop/
I'll even plan a trip around shops in the summer.
Just for the ride.

Why of course!!! Have been turned away a couple of times because the shops were getting ready to close...so disappointing. Can't wait to use the Tom Tom my youngest and wife got me for Christmas so I can find more of them lol. I couldn't figure out what the gift was when they gave me this hint..."you will love it, but not so sure Dad will like you having it" followed by chuckles.

Not yet, but I hope to later in life ;) Right now, I don't stop unless I have to with the three little ones with me ;)
